    This study was set forward to establish the outstanding challenges to Universal Primary Education within Mukono Town Council by taking a case study of some selected secondary schools. The general object of the study was to establish such challenges to UPE. Chapter two looked at the review of what other researchers had written on the theme under study by citing out their concerns over the issue of compulsory education or education for all. In the preceding chapter that is, the methodology, it involved the application of descriptive design, and the collection of data was effected with the application of questionnaires. Data analysis was done by using percentages and frequency distribution tables. Chapter four looked at the analysis, interpretation and discussion of findings and from the finding of the study, it was revealed that factors like, traditions and culture, uncongenial home environment, poor supervision and monitoring among others were the outstanding challenges to Universal Primary Education.
